Zeitgeschichte der Städte Schlesiens, mit Abbildungen

STUCKART, Carl Friedrich., FISCHER, Christian Friedrich Emmanuel - and STUCKART (Carl Friedrich) · 1819 · 69 pictures

A multi-volume topographical history of the towns of Silesia, compiled by Carl Friedrich Stuckart with Christian Friedrich Emmanuel Fischer and issued in 1819 for German readers interested in local civic history. The plates are outline engravings of distant town prospects, each framed by a foreground tree and sloping ground, with church spires and towers ranged along a low horizon, lightly hatched clouds and handwritten place-name captions beneath \u2014 useful for skyline silhouettes, tree-branch framing devices and engraved cloud textures.
